Like Sherlock Loves Crime Scenes cartoon by Amy Crook

Like Sherlock Loves Crime Scenes by Amy Crook

I couldn’t resist doing a Sherlock & John cartoon to match the Like Mycroft Loves His Umbrella art from November. Both of these guys are now available as Valentines in my Etsy shop, and I’ll be adding a series of prints soon as well. I have to admit, I really enjoyed wrapping these two up in crime scene tape, it just seemed a natural fit.

Get Well Squid

A friend of mine is in the hospital right now, so I drew up this little guy and printed him on a card to help cheer her up while she undergoes treatment. I’m not sure how he’s going to get that bottle of pills open without a helping hand, but he sure looks like he could use them, poor guy.

Cthulhu Dreams of Love

Cthulhu gets a Valentine! Of course his love-dreams could be for a birthday, anniversary or just because, but it’s that season and I drew him with that in mind.

That said, my favorite part is the button-eyed Hound of Tindalos plush toy. He’s holding its paw! Aww, Cthulhu, we never knew you were such a softie.

Just a silly bit of smooching I drew for a holiday card exchange. They’re definitely enjoying their holiday cheer!

Like Mycroft Loves His Umbrella, cartoon by Amy Crook

Like Mycroft Loves His Umbrella by Amy Crook

I know it’s a bit early for most people to be thinking about Valentines, but us handcrafters need extra time to get our swag together. I’m thinking of doing a line this year of “I love you like X loves Y” cards — some, like this one, of the dorky fangirl variety, and some of a more geeky bent.

Plus, the image of Mycroft smooching his DI under his favourite umbrella was one I just couldn’t resist.

Squidtini

Squidtini, cartoon by Amy Crook

Squidtini by Amy Crook

My friend, G, is a big fan of both gin and squid, so one night I drew up this little guy with her in mind. He’s even made friends with the olive, which he’s got clutched in his feeder tentacles, though the gin’s given him a bit of a blush on his fins and cheeks. This little squid is sloshed!

I think it would make a great invitation to a New Year’s dinner party, so I made cards for my Etsy shop.

Cthulhu’s Gift

Cthulhu's Gift, cartoon art by Amy Crook

Cthulhu’s Gift by Amy Crook

I’ve been working on holiday cards again this week, and Cthulhu really wants you to like his gift. I decided to make a rather generic gift for the original, and then I drew a page of holiday dingbats — including a delightfully gruesome spike bow of a sort I’ve actually bought and put on gifts myself (minus the blood).

The original is, of course, the first version, since this one exists courtesy of Photoshop, but I find I’m rather fond of his baubles. I want a tentacle glass ornament!

This is what he looks like in a frame, though the original won’t be framed unless the buyer requests it for an additional fee.
